    GTI mk V rear shocks

    A friend's 172 needs both rear shocks replaced and he found some mk V gti rear shocks at a good price and some guys say they can mod them to fit the clio is this a wise move or they're a totally different specification? might worth the effort as they probably will last longer.. thx!

    clutch assembly-parts that need lubrication

    what about the fork pads and pivot? they must gather clutch dust as well. a bit strange why some areas do not require lubrification while others do, even if they work in the same dusty environment

    BMC induction kit cleaning?

    the car feels ok with this but probably I'm gonna buy the BMC oil next time and sell this one. only bought it because the BMC wasn't available at that time. I'm keeping the cleaner though ;)

    BMC induction kit cleaning?

    obviously I won't be using wd40, just said that the motorex oil I got is somewhere between wd40 and engine oil thickness wise.

    BMC induction kit cleaning?

    I know the procedure, just wanted to know if the oil which apparently is for foam filters can be used on cotton filters like the BMC

    BMC induction kit cleaning?

    Powerflex correct measures

    I had all the powerflex kit once, now only antiroll bar plus dog bone. no difference, maybe a little more precise handling but hard to tell if you're human the ride is the same, I heard all sort of stupid stories like "it will make your teeth hurt" and so on. maybe on a normal car but if you...

    Gearbox for 172 TURBO

    We found a company claiming that they could uprate the box to be about 20-30% stronger but it's expensive. more expensive than the vag box conversion

    Magnecor 85 mm red- owner opinions

    looks like the demand for the red ones is low, blue ones were available straight away. so it took some time for "julie" to make them ;) at least I had no problems in these 2 months with the old ones

    Gearbox for 172 TURBO

    I will speak to the owner and ask him. and yes, it will be a hydraulic clutch no, because the fly along with the clutch kit are on their way. once we'll have the fly the spacer will be machined. yes there will be a trigger wheel on that pulley on the other side and the sensor positioned.
